I got my fist pull plow last year. I was one of the first people to buy one. It has saved so much time at condos, where there are 50+ drives streight into the garage. Over the summer i built a second pull plow, they are not that hard to build. For more info building a pull plow check out custom built equipment discussion. If you are doing a lot of high end residental, where the people want their property clear, this is where we often shovel because the money is there. Only if you are buying the pull plow just to try to speed up your root, i wouldn't buy it this year. Only i will say when doing residental it is really helpfull, just remember with a pull plow you can't have a sander, and with a sander you can have a pull plow. Their is one company that builds a pull plow for a tailgate spreader, but i don't think you can have a v-box.
